CDW makes systematic changes to SalesForce to Certinia and did not think the whole process through which has caused vendors not being able to access the new system causing double and triple work and venders not to be paid on time, no bonuses of any type and your yearly and annual reviews are a joke.
Great Service and Support from CDW
There is little room for growth in career advancement and after a financial crisis all bonuses and incentives were removed. Now it is a typical company with nothing special to put it above the rest.
